Can SQL 2008 and sql 2008R2 exist on the same cluster?

Can SQL 2008 and sql 2008R2 exist on the same cluster?

I have a 2-node Cluster consisting of Windows 2008 R2 SP1, hosting SQL Server 2008 Enterprise (SP2).I was just asked if this cluster can host SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition on the same cluster?If I am not mistaken, there will be some services such as SQL Server Browser and other services (if installed; some, not all) that will be upgraded.Thanks.

Thanks. :)
